****************************************************************
2. System Requirements
======================
Software on the CD should be installed only on Intel server
boards with any of the following operating systems:

 - Microsoft* Windows* XP with Service Pack 1 (Professional and 
   Home Edition).
 - Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server
 - Microsoft Windows 2003 Server


NOTE: Installation on a Microsoft Windows XP, Windows 2000, 
      or Windows 2003 server system requires that the user either 
      be logged in as an Administrator or have Administrator 
      privileges.

NOTE: If your system has other applications running that could 
      prevent a system reboot, please close those applications 
      before starting an installation to protect yourself from 
      loss of any unsaved data.

NOTE: If the installation of any drivers will require a reboot,
      make sure the system's CD boot priority is set lower than
      the hard drive's boot priority prior to installing the
      drivers from Express Installer.


****************************************************************
3. Known Issues with Intel(R) Express Installer
===============================================
The following known issues are listed with the installer portion 
of the Intel Express Installer CD:

- The Express Installer driver Installation Progress window does
  not pop up on top of other windows (e.g. Windows Explorer) on
  the screen.  As a result, it may not obvious to the user if the
  installation is progressing.
- The Express Installer Documents window does not refresh 
  cleanly.  If the EI window is moved or if another window
  covers it, portions or all of the Documents window may go 
  blank.
- Since this resource CD is bootable (boots to ROMDOS),
  if the system’s CD boot priority is set higher than the hard 
  drive, the CD will boot into ROMDOS during the driver 
  installation\reboot process.
- On Windows 2003, a Security Alert window pops up when the CD
  is first inserted. The user is prompted: Do you still want to
  install this driver software?  If the user fails to respond in a
  timely manner, an internal and unknown error may occur
